ok I've searched high and low for any advice on how to get this bolt off, but I didn't find anything. I'm trying to replace my ignition coils, but the bolts on the back bracket are giving me trouble. After some time I managed to get the upper bolt off, but the lower one refuses to move. I've used several different wrenches/sockets to try and get in there to loosen the bolt, but it still won't give. And now I can see that the bolt is starting to strip. I'm not sure how I can get this thing off because I've tried getting at bolt coming from several different directions but every time something gets in the way so that I can't turn the tool enough to loosen the bolt.



I've been at this for the past couple of hours on and off so if anyone knows how I can get that sucker off I'd really appreciate it.

 

What brand of penetrating oil did you use?

 

Liquid Wrench. That bolt is the last thing I need to be able to get off before I can finally finish replacing the parts in my car.

 

I make sure to use a 6 point socket not 12 point so it's less likely to strip. If I remember this right, I put some extensions on maybe even use a deep socket to extend it underneath the throttle body so that my wratchet is close to the firewall. Apply pressure to push everything against the bolt and try to break it loose. If it's still too tight then use like your jack handle or something to slip over your wratchet kinda like a breaker bar.

see I've tried to see if I could get at it that way but the lines running into the engine get in the way. I think I'm gonna have to disconnect/move something around there but I'm not sure which way would give me enough space to move around to break the bolt loose.

 

sometimes, well alot of the times, you have to unhook or move things around to get to one thing, which will become typical working on the Hyundai!
